PolyCB2
MX-90 & Ultra-82 solar screening are the result of an enhanced formulation
applied to the coating of the fiber content woven into Poly CB2 screen mesh.
This formulation was inspired by NASA research that required astronauts and
equipment to be protected from solar radiation.

Prior technologies of simply reflecting
the solar energy was not adequate since the reflective material itself became heated
to extremely high temperatures. Formulas had to be found that neutralized the
high frequency radiation without interfering with the lower frequencies of the
visual light spectrum.

From this and other research came a new
generation of UV ray inhibitors. It is these improved inhibitors, incorporated
into the fiber coating, that make PolyCB2 solar screens so amazingly
protective without spoiling the view.

More About the Basic PolyCB2
Screen Mesh

PolyCB2 screen mesh is available in a verity
of weave sizes for a verity of purposes The basic PolyCB2 formula for strength
and durability developed as a result of NASA research grants that
resulted in the production of polycarbonate 100 times stronger than steel.

Polycarbonate was first known to
the public in products such as bullet-proof glass and shatter proof plastics. As
the need for greater strength and flexibility increased, polycarbonate
substrates have become increasingly stronger and versatile.

The ultra fine fibers that make up the
polymer core of PolyCB2
are comprised of molecular chains intertwined in a spaghetti like fashion. These
chains react very much like woven nylon rope. The greater the pull, the tighter
the weave becomes.

When woven into a mesh, this unique molecular structure produces
extreme ball burst and tensile strength. If a force with velocity is applied to
it, the impact is gently absorbed by redistribution to the larger surrounding area. This
flexibility and return-to-prior-state provides a nearly impenetrable surface.

By coating the extruded strands of fibers with a UV protection,
the mesh is protected from molecular break-down or design changes caused by the
high frequency ultra-violet sun rays. This inhibits aging and color fading. Biocides
incorporated in the coating provide immunity from mold and mildew.

The result is a screen mesh that is stronger, more durable and
impervious to the elements. PolyCB2
Screen Mesh will not stretch out of shape after years of
wear and will not become brittle. It potentially has an unlimited lifespan.
